"The weather hampered operations a little bit. For safety reasons, you can't have people climbing around up in the air," said Brooks.

Firefighters spent every night since the explosion Thursday watching the silo to make sure that another fire wasn’t flaring up. On Saturday, crews took the silo apart piece by piece.

"Three of the sections of the silo came down and were put on the ground this morning. The final section will be removed and that big egg of plastic, so to speak, will be rolled out," said Brooks.

Brooks said the big plastic egg was the cause of Thursday's fire. He said the area will be inspected Monday, and then the company will start rebuilding.

"When we get into the bottom and check the foundation and make sure everything is secure and safe, then the intent is to order the parts and replace the machine correctly," said Brooks.

AERT said some of the parts from the silo can be saved and used again, but other things will have to be replaced. Brooks said the company won't know for sure what needs to be done until the site is inspected.
